It Burns

insired by a picture from allpoetry.com/amyrowsell



What burns inside her? 
what is that girl’s fire?
something that maybe he is not providing
is there something she is hiding?
is there something dark inside her
maybe what she sees is a blur
maybe she was scared for life
maybe she didn’t want to be his wife
maybe this girl needs help
maybe she needs something for herself
what is this girl’s fire 
what is burning inside her?
